While they cheer the elimination of Title 9. Smoke and mirrors as always with them. They do not care about women. Distraction while the billionaires turn us all back into peasants.
We too need to recognize culture war bait in a class war though.
They’re about as interested in men-in-women’s sports as they are types of wool.
They truly want us stuck in these culture battles so we aren’t coalescing on watching where the GOP are pilfering money & power from and fighting that.
I mean, abusive cishet men like Larry Nassar and Paul Riley are definitely a problem in women’s and girls’ sports, but that’s never who they mean. 🤷♀️
So, I make a challenge, I say, hey, this kid competing against my daughter might not be what she seems, i want confirmation of her eligibility before she competes
And she has to go to Larry fucking Nassar so he can verify?
I was saying this to a homeless trump supporter, who invoked his daughter as someone who might conceivably be affected.
I told him that the policies he was supporting would be used by men to challenge her eligibility for sports by demanding to check for themselves to see she was not actually a man
It's amazing how small the attention span of the right is. "Wait, is Trump destroying democracy..? *jingle jingle* Look over there, it's DEI and trans rights!"
Culture war is used to distract the populace from the real agenda of the elite class which is to transfer wealth from the poor to the rich, to dismantle the regulatory state, abolish workers rights.
Has a trans athlete ever intentionally harmed another student in their sport? Children of religion have, on multiple occasions, intentionally injured/ killed other children, but what’s the data show about our trans kids?
I thought this “movement” was about protecting kids?
( crickets chirp)
Sport associations exist for every sport at every age/competition level. Pick a sport, advocate your concerns directly. Allow each to determine the best path.
Agent 🍊 cares dick about sports, science, human rights, fairness, sportsmanship, nuance. He wants to put his ignorant gasbag brand on it.
Amusingly, the person in my office who asked me do I think it’s fair that men identify as women and get into sports with an unfair advantage is the most idiotic of my coworkers.
The mental acrobatics that people are doing to try and find 'justified' hatred for the oppressed would be much better spent looking at how trustworthy their peers and government are right now.
It's the women in men's sport I fear. Ever been crushed by a woman spiking the ball in your face at volleyball? It hurts. But I sense people are being serious again...
They're based on some science, but they're also pretty simplistic. Turns out that humans do not just fit into a clean box of XX women and XY men, so maybe we can do better.
We've already done better science by identifying that Caster Semenya has an extremely rare male genetic disorder and by documenting that people with those rare conditions are only .02% of athletes. Everyone else is unambiguously male or female, as can be seen in sports categories that work just fine
Okay, sure, and trans people who are on HRT are another rare group that requires special consideration and who don't fit neatly into existing XX female and XY male categories. Not sure what your point is otherwise.
The point is obvious, every person on earth is either male or female, with male or female physical traits. That matters in sports. There has never been a female player in the NFL, NBA, MLB, NHL, male Olympics or any other elite male sport no matter how many hormones they take. For obvious reasons.
When did anyone outside of family, friends and their respective organizations ever care about girls sports, young lady sports, or women’s sports with a fraction of veracity given to men’s sports?
When I was in high school, we had girls on the football, hockey, and baseball teams. A friend played softball as a dude. Soccer was the only sport heavily gendered. Things were fine.
I’m still pissed at the NCAA for not addressing this sooner. 10 fucking athletes. That’s all there are. They were apparently afraid to get sued and lose all their Fed money.

Let kids be kids, and play games.
Sports should be fun!

They can’t use it as a battering ram in the culture wars anymore.
Just really really stupid

Not a coincidence, methinks.
